All Answers: Answer #1 I went to Runaway Bay in Jamaica and Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. When I went with my parents we stayed at all inclusive resorts. The one in Jamaica was called th Eaton Hall Beach Hotel and we stayed in a villa. I think that massages are included there too!! The price included the restaurant connected to both resorts as well as drinks at the bar. I remember the both places were close to town. In Mexico we walked downtown and in Jamaica we took a taxi that wasn't too expensive. I don't know if you want to go to town but it is a nice way to really experience the different cultures. Another plus was that both resorts were right on the beach!! Be careful when you go though....I think that it may be monsoon season!!! Good Luck and Have Fun!!P.S. If you go to Jamaica you have to go to Dunn River Falls. Search for it on the internet. Im sure it would be fun and romantic!! - answered by C Dog
Answer #2 Have been to Jamaica every year for the past 10 years. We usually go in February. Weather is hot, but nice along the beach. We don't stay in Montego Bay, we go to Negril. Seven miles of white sand beach on one end of town and cliffs on the other end. Have stayed at many different hotels on the beach. Favorite hotel is For Real Beach Resort- the staff is very nice and it's centrally located. You can walk the beach and stop in at most restaurants without having to be staying there. Alot of places have their menus and prices posted to help decide where to go. The hotel staff can also give good advice. Wherever you go, have a great time! - answered by CATHY A
Answer #3 Depends on your budget..generally speaking Jamaica is more expensive than Mexico.you can go to applevacations.com and take a look, watch for the 'last minute deals' you can book about a month and 1/2 ahead. don't go less than a 4 apple rating for a hotel.for Jamaica you can get a deal for about a 3-4 day trip from $800PP..on the opposite side for Puerto Vallarta MX you can get deals for around $700 PP for a 7 day trip.You don't have to spend thousands of dollars to go on vacation, and don't let anyone convince you that you do. (of course you can if you want ) Just remember you will need a passport for either destination after the end of this year! - answered by dreamingofthe_sea
Answer #4 The best place to stay in Jamaica is Ocho Rios, Port Antonio, Runaway Bay or Montego Bay. My older sister worked at Sandals for over 22 years. They are great resorts-you can even book at one and go hopping around and stay at others with no penalty-this is encouraged. I myself have stayed at most of them and can give you personal input. They are among the most expensive resorts in Jamaica (VERY EXPENSIVE) and the Caribbean-unless you plan to do tons of water sports or just bask in the sun you may want to consider another resort that offers more. You will also be isolated from the local people and just be hanging out with the same people you left back at home. *boring* They however, have really high standards , beautiful properties (the properties look just like they do on the internet-they aren't older or unkept-they're truly beautiful) and the only reason they don't all have a five star rating would be because golf is nearby instead of being on the resort itself. If you would like to email me I can give you more information and answer your questions in depth. I used to work as a travel agent in Toronto and as a tour guide in Jamaica, I have also stayed at more Jamaican resorts than I can possibly count. Depending on your budget and what you want eg horseback riding, scuba diving etc I can give you great advice. - answered by J.W.
Answer #5 Breezes is good, try it - answered by dora
Answer #6 My best friend got married on the beach at Breezes, MoBay (Montego Bay). My mom & I stayed across the street at Doctors Cove(Cave?). Ours was nice but we spent most of our time at Breezes. Its a really nice hotel, the staff is attentive & very friendly. They have alotof activities too. We had a deck/pool party one night, a fashion show, jet skiing, & its down the street from the casino, Margaritaville, & some other good native eating spots. Since you are going with your significant other, I dont have to tell you to NOT go ALONE! Watch out for the "ganja" salesmen too! They'll get you! The traffic is kind of treacherous, they drive like demons! Be careful crossing the street. As for Mexico, Ive never stayed there, only been to Cozumel on a cruise but Cozumel is great shopping especially for leather goods. They have a Carlos & Charlies that is alotof fun to eat at. I heard that Cancun & Acapulco were nice but to avoid them around spring break time of course! Good luck deciding & have fun! - answered by WhatheHell

Answer #8 Defenatly go to Jamaica but I would not recomend Breezes go to FDR I have been there countless times and loved it every time. It is all inclusive and has many activatys for adults and kids. Among these benefits include a baby siter (if you want one) several rooms and a large staff purly for the enjoyment of kids (headed by one of the nicest ladies you will ever meat, my favorent, a video game room, also it has a great water slide a large pool, small kids pools, game rooms, gyms, several resterants, a free bar open 24/7 great jamaican food, snorkling, scuba diving, kyaking, ect. It is a great place you would love it - answered by Han Solo
Answer #9 no but anything in jamaica is fun - answered by b.i.g)_d
Answer #10 breezes is a nice hotel. they are less expensive and its a smaller resort. the nice thing about is that it doesn't allow kids under sixteen. and they have this snack bar by the pool that serves the best cheeseburgers soaked in jerk sauce before they are grilled. the beach it is on is semi private. its a smaller beach, only about a quarter mile long, but it keeps the locals out. if leaving the resort at night, give a securtiy guard five dollars to escort you. the first time we left at night to go to the store, we had a knife pulled on us. so its dangerous, no matter where you go. - answered by kaylah2208
